Josef Bacik 7ecc8a106c Btrfs: fix btrfs_write_inode vs delayed iput deadlock
commit 3c4276936f6fbe52884b4ea4e6cc120b890a0f9f upstream.

We recently ran into the following deadlock involving
btrfs_write_inode():

Writeback calls:

btrfs_write_inode
  btrfs_commit_transaction
    btrfs_run_delayed_iputs

If iput() is called on that same inode, evict() will wait for writeback
forever.

btrfs_write_inode() was originally added way back in 4730a4bc5bf3
("btrfs_dirty_inode") to support O_SYNC writes. However, ->write_inode()
hasn't been used for O_SYNC since 148f948ba877 ("vfs: Introduce new
helpers for syncing after writing to O_SYNC file or IS_SYNC inode"), so
btrfs_write_inode() is actually unnecessary (and leads to a bunch of
unnecessary commits). Get rid of it, which also gets rid of the
deadlock.
